17 Chapter 6 Motion in Two Dimensions Vocabulary Review 1. E 2. A 3. C 4. D 5. B Section 6.1: Projectile Motion 1. To an observer at Position A, the ball would appear to move straight up and then straight down. 2. To an observer at Position B, the ball would appear to move in a straight line. 3. To an observer at Position C, the ball s path would appear as in the diagram (as a parabola). 17

18 4. Throughout its flight, a projectile is constantly being accelerated toward the ground, even when it is moving upward. Thus, the vertical vector of a projectile s flight first points upward and shrinks until the projectile reaches its maximum height, at which point the projectile has no vertical component to its motion. The vertical vector then points to the ground and grows larger until the projectile returns to Earth. The horizontal vector always points parallel to the ground and has the same magnitude throughout the projectile s flight. 5. Both stones will hit the ground at the same time because the horizontal component of their velocities is independent of the vertical component. They both start out with zero vertical velocity and they both undergo the same acceleration due to gravity. Section 6.2: Uniform Circular Motion 1. The object must be moving in a circle with a fixed radius and the object must be moving at constant speed. 2. While speed is a directionless quantity (scalar), velocity is a vector and therefore any change in direction indicates a change in velocity. 3. Newton s first law states that a body moving at a constant velocity will continue moving at a constant velocity unless an unbalanced force acts on that body. Since an object in uniform circular motion has a changing velocity, it must be experiencing a non-zero net force. 4. Newton s second law states that the net force acting on an object causing an acceleration in the same direction as the net force. As shown in #3, an object in uniform circular motion must be experiencing a non-zero net force. Therefore, there must be a non-zero acceleration in the same direction as the net force. 18

The rod was suspended by a thin wire attached at its center so that the rod could spin freely. He then placed two larger lead spheres in fixed positions near the smaller spheres. The gravitational attraction between the lead spheres allowed Cavendish to obtain a value for the universal gravitational constant. 26. ( )( )( ) ( ). This is the same number as the universal gravitational constant. The universal gravitational constant is the force of gravity between two 1.00 kg objects that are separated by exactly one meter.

Since the same impulse is required to stop the driver s body, a longer collision time results in a lower force, and less chance of injury. 15. True 16. Angular 17. True 18. Increases 19. True 20.

Since potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the skater goes down the ramp, the skater needs four times as much starting potential energy. Since gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to height, the ramp must be four times as high. c. Use conservation of mechanical energy. The gravitational potential energy change is equal to the kinetic energy change. Since the skater starts with 380 J of potential energy (see part a) and no kinetic energy, and finishes with no potential energy, the skater must finish with 380 J or kinetic energy. 2. The path that an object follows in reaching the ground does not affect the final kinetic energy of the object. 3. Some of the original mechanical energy in the system is converted to another form of energy within members of the system or transmitted to energy outside the system. For example, some of the energy is lost to friction or air resistance; some energy is converted to thermal energy or sound energy. 4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 26
